Request Line: Potent Potables

INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY

The PRODUCER sits on the floor of studio, tinkering with a long piece of pipe, a bunch of empty beer bottles, and a hammer.  He loads several of the beer bottles into a cloth grocery bag, and raises the hammer.

DJ 3000: SO…WHATCHA DOIN?

PRODUCER: The stores won’t let me use my own bags anymore so I figured I’d use them for this.

DJ 3000: RIGHT.  AND BY “THIS” YOU ARE REFERRING TO…

PRODUCER: Oh.  Yeah, the whole “no sports and no beer makes [redacted] go something something.”  So I’m making a still.

DJ 3000: A STILL?

PRODUCER: A distillation column.

DJ 3000: YES, THAT WOULD EXPLAIN YOUR GOOGLE SEARCHES RECENTLY.

The PRODUCER hums to himself as he begins to smash the bottles using the hammer, and then pouring the glass shards from the bag into the piece of pipe.

DJ 3000: I SEE YOU HAVE DECIDED IT’S NOT WORTH THE TIME TO CLEAN THE BOTTLES.

PRODUCER: I mean, this thing’s going to be full of hot ethanol, can’t imagine any germs will be able to survive in this environment.

DJ 3000: THAT’S TRUE.  SO HAVE YOU DECIDED WHAT KIND OF SPIRIT YOU’LL BE PRODUCING?

PRODUCER: Probably soju.

DJ 3000: OH, BECAUSE OF ALL THAT RICE YOU ‘LIBERATED’ FROM THE 99 RANCH?

PRODUCER: Listen, if they are going to leave all that rice sitting on pallets in an unsecured area, who am I to blame for taking it?  I’m teaching them a valuable lesson about security.

DJ 3000: I CAN’T HELP BUT NOTICE THAT YOU DID IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHILE THE LAPD WAS OTHERWISE ENGAGED.

PRODUCER: Well yeah, that’s just common sense.  You know, lots easier to social distance at 3 a.m.

DJ 3000: FOR SURE, FOR SURE.

The PRODUCER continues smashing bottles.

DJ 3000: IT’S ABOUT TIME FOR REQUEST LINE, DID YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE ANYTHING IN MIND?

The PRODUCER sits back and contemplates.

PRODUCER: You know, I feel like my focus has narrowed these days.  So let’s keep it simple.  Alcohol.

DJ 3000: VERY WELL.  SHALL I CUE UP SOMETHING APPROPRIATE?

PRODUCER: Please do.

Today’s theme is: Alcohol.  We’re looking for song about booze, but there are TWO catches – they MUST have some type of spirit in the name of the song, and you cannot request any type of alcohol more than TWICE.  Gin, whiskey, vodka, etc. Post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M00nsh!ne4evr” and they should embed in the comments after you refresh.  Have at it!

scotchnaut

Look man, I just clicked on this post and this was the very first tune I thought of.

If the lyrics weren’t so descriptive, you could easily argue that this song is a metaphor for alcoholism

SonOfSpam

WCS
Viva La Tabula Raza

Not as done as I thought. I may have posted this one fairly recently for another reason. But if you’ve ever been to Thailand, you’ll know the deal.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCm-FSPy0bA
Edit: after getting called out by SoS down thread, I hope that a brand of booze as the song title works

SonOfSpam

Hey, just think of me as a friendly cop who will beat you and lie about it.

Viva La Tabula Raza

And I’m too much of a techno-tard to figure out how to film the beatdown on my phone.

Viva La Tabula Raza

OK, i’ve done my major food groups (tequila, rum & coke, wine, whiskey) plus bonus, champagne that tastes just like coca cola (or cherry cola, on the US release). I’ll sit back and watch/listen till 7pm.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nj2700em-JQ

Edit: Damnit I missed nomonkeyfun got this one already. Replacing. Sorry about the C&W part. But it’s kinda funny.

SonOfSpam

Nice to you to honor Seamus by not paying attention to the rules

they MUST have some type of spirit in the name of the song

Viva La Tabula Raza

Whoops! I’ve already been indulging and missed that.
Too late to edit, so here we go:

At the risk of being THAT GUY (too late), I already took that below.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Missed that. I see the Champs Tequila got posted a couple times too. Dammit!

SonOfSpam

It’s Friday. No one cares except annoying pedants, and those people are terrible.

Whiskey, and soooooooo going to get “dude’d” for this one.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMqgVXSvwGo

SonOfSpam

RIP Seamus

Dude.

Low Commander of the Super Soldiers

Dude, for both the drink and the song.

SonOfSpam

Please do not insult the Official American White Dork Wasted Beverage.

Low Commander of the Super Soldiers

Actually [pushes up imaginary glasses] Fireball isn’t even whiskey, it’s just flavored schnapps.

…I was going somewhere with this, and I lost it, so just be happy you know that disgusting truth now.

SonOfSpam

Pick #1, fortified wine division:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMDljoM5JFI

SonOfSpam

Rules question: Let’s say a song has “Jack Daniels” in the title. Does that count as one of your whiskey choices? In other words, do brand names represent their specific liquor type?

SonOfSpam

Also, what about a mixed drink? Would that count for the underlying liquor choice?
